We. Are. SO. Jealous.
Imagine you are at the six-month countdown stage to your wedding and you are starting to freak out amount the mounting costs.
You had budgeted for the main things; the dresses and suits, the venue, the bands, the photographers and that was all just about manageable.
But then you started to think about the other stuff, the little costs - wedding favours, treats, shoes and accessories for the bridal party, flowers, a gift for each set of parents, wedding cars, the wedding rings!
You do a quick calculation and realise that in order to afford it all, you will have to sell off a few items around your home on eBay, starting with family heirlooms.
And then you do a quick pick for the Lotto
AND YOU WIN €120,000.
That's what happened for one Dublin bride who
bought a ticket for €5 in Galway and happily collected her cheque from Lottery HQ yesterday morning.
The woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, says that she is going to splurge on a really great wedding band and invite more people along to celebrate the big day.
"That’s the best part of a wedding, so I want a band that’ll get people moving," she said as she collected her cheque at the Lottery HQ.
Personally, this gives me hope. I have nine more months before my wedding. Anyone want to go halvesies on a Quick Pick?!
